The side by side stories of the two
characters is effective to building an
impression of them.
It was a little bit slow in comparison to
the song. Why does Georgia look straight
at the camera at the end?
Sad, but
effective to the
genre

Black and white choice works really
well.
I would have increased the editing pace,
including more shots.
Cool

creates mystery on the relationship
between Charlie and Georgia, black and
white is really effective, fits mood of
song
I interpreted it as them planning to meet?
Would of been good if after the shot of
Georgia looking up. Charlie could knock
on the door? Let them meet at the end?
interesting

the black and white sets the mood for
the narrative.
I wouldn't have such a sudden ending. slow
Perso
n 7
I like the editing with the use of B & W
as well as the different camera shots.
I would edit the car to fit the beat more. Sick
Perso
n 8
great use of the black and white, gives
it a great effect, loved the song as well.
Some good slow motion shots, overall
really good.
Think I could still here some swearing and
Georgia did look at the camera but it was
still really good.
Amazing
Perso
n 9
shot well and mood of the visuals fit
the tone of the song
more footage needed to make the
narrative make sense, have they broken
up? better ending needed
emotive
Perso
n 10
the storyline and editing was good I don't quite understand why Georgia
looks at the camera at the end? think I
would remove that if it was my video.
deep

great shots, they look really smooth
together, very slow and calming as well
which suits the chilled vibe to the song but
really I liked your black and white look of
the video, shows conventions of r & b
videos
sweet
